Zeekoogat is a farm in heaven!

Zeekoegat is a place in heaven, and I wished that we could have stayed longer. The accommodation is impeccable. The farm is what dreams are made of. The host was welcoming and took exceptional care of my husband and me and our dog, Mila. The catering was absolutely 5 star. Although quite a drive from the main road, it was well worth it and we hope to return soon.

'n Wonderlike ervaring en die ongelooflikste gasvrou denkbaar. Pragtige omgewing.

'n Werklike belewenis. Ons het die opsie gekies om die aand te eet in hul pragtige onthaallokaal en die kos was uit die boonste rakke. Besonderse smake en die gasvryheid vanaf Chante was net eenvoudig uit 'n ander wêreld. 'n Weggesteekte juweel en alhoewel dit nie op 'n hoofroete geleë is nie, sal ek moeite doen om hier te bly as ek in die omgewing van Carnarvon verblyf soek.

A wonderful experience and the most incredible hostess imaginable. Beautiful surroundings.

A real experience. We chose the option to eat in the evening in their beautiful reception room and the food was top notch. Special tastes and the hospitality from Chante was simply out of another world. A hidden gem and although not on a main route I would make an effort to stay here if looking for accommodation in the Carnarvon area.

Blissful isolation.

Baie goeie blyplek! Uiters gasvry. Dit is presies wat mens soek in die Karoo. Volgende keer bly ek langer. GPS laat mens verkeerd ry, kan reggestel word met aanwysingsborde, asook borde wat aandui dat jy wel op die regte pad is.

Wonderlike ondervinding.

Chante en haar seun het ons baie goed ontvang ten spyte dat ons bespreking verkeerd was. Sy het vir ons heerlike skaaptjops en wors gegee. Ons kon heerlik braai die aand, lekker warm geslaap en lekker ontbyt gekry. Baie vriendelike en behulpsame gasvrou. Goeie ondervinding gewees. Pragtige plaas.

Hearty and homely. Chante was a superb and generous host. They even braaied for us. And breakfast - oh, goodie! Our three city boys also enjoyed meeting a new friend, Dawid - a proper plaasjapie and wonderful young man. If we pass those parts again, we'll be sure to visit again.

N lekker kuier wat ons definitief weer gaan doen!

Baie lekker gebly. Baie gesellige mense. Kon nie genoeg doen om ons tuis te laat voel nie. Sal die plek aanbeveel vir almal wat die plaaslewe geniet. Ons was 'n groep van 9 mense. Het met 5 x Gyro Copters daar geland en die aand oorgeslaap. Pragtige lang aanloopbaan. Brandstof beskikbaar. Klein Jan en sy vrou het ons soos konings behandel. Baie dankie, julle is super!

Vrede op die vlaktes.

Dis verleidelik om te wil sê dat Zeekoegat besoek moet word ter wille van die kos, want Shanti kan "boerekos" laat smaak soos Michelen 5-ster, maar daar is baie meer aan so 'n besoek. Die stilte, die wydheid van die omgewing. Dalk perdry ook, of Khoisan rotstekeninge bekyk en die pragtige roostuin, of sommer net stap. As jy wil en kan, kan jy soontoe vlieg ook. Die kruis-landingsbane is goed versorg met geen obstruksies nie. Net een veilgheidswenk: die aansluitingspad (van Carnavon of van Vosburg) word deur verspoelings getref en daar is plek-plek gevaarlike dongas dwarsoor die pad. Ry net versitig en stadig.

This review is being shown in its original language.
Translate to English.

Peace on the plains.

It's tempting to say that Zeekoegat should be visited for the sake of the food, because Shanti can make "peasant food" taste like Michelin 5-star, but there is much more to such a visit. The silence, the vastness of the environment. Maybe horse riding too, or see Khoisan rock paintings and the beautiful rose garden, or just walk. If you want and can, you can fly there too. The cross runways are well maintained with no obstructions. Just one safety tip: the junction road (from Carnavon or from Vosburg) is hit by washouts and there are dangerous dongas across the road in places. Just drive carefully and slowly.

Hidden Karoo gem.

We had the most wonderful time at Zeekoegat Guest House. Chante is a fantastic host. The delivery of our Karoo lamb for the braai, together with hearty farm sides, by Chante and her sister-in-law, was a personal touch that is indicative of the care that has been put into this guest house. This off-the-beaten-track spot offers a place for carefree family time. Many small details have been considered and beautifully executed.

There is something very special about staying in the Carnarvon district. You have to go off the beaten track to stay there, especially a place like Zeekoegat. It is well worth it. The late afternoon, evening, night and early morning we spent there was magical.

The food provided was wonderful. The host was very generous with regards to use of the quad bike.

Ons huisie was skoon, netjies en voldoende toegerus. Die plaas self bied genoeg om te doen - swem, looproetes en voëlkyk. Chante, ons gasvrou, het uit haar pad gegaan om ons kuier so moeiteloos en sorgvry moontlik te maak, en elke maaltyd was 'n feesmaal.

Perfect getaway in the middle of nowhere.

Our cottage was clean, tidy and adequately equipped. The farm itself offers plenty to do - swimming, walking trails and bird watching. Chante, our hostess, went out of her way to make our visit as effortless and carefree as possible, and every meal was a feast.

Heerlik gekuier op hierdie pragtige plaas.

Ons het ons oornag op Zeekoegat vreeslik geniet! Die huisie was pragtig, skoon en ons het heerlik geslaap. Chanté het ons baie vriendelik ontvang en ons so welkom laat voel, en haar kos was uit die boonste rakke. Die plaas is pragtig en vir seker die moeite werd om hier te oornag. Selfs ons vierbeenkind was welkom! Sal vir seker weer hier oornag!

Had a great time on this beautiful farm.

We really enjoyed our overnight stay on Zeekoogat! The house was beautiful, clean and we slept great. Chanté received us very kindly and made us feel so welcome, and her food was top notch. The farm is beautiful and definitely worth spending the night here. Even our four-legged child was welcome! Will stay here again for sure!

Uit die boonste rakke!

Ons was hartlik ontvang en dadelik at home gevoel. Chante is 'n amazing gasvrou. Die aandete en ontbyt was van die beste gehalte en kan sien dat Chante baie liefde in die kos gesit het. Die huisie was baie skoon en netjies en het aan al ons vereistes voldoen vir 'n oornag. Chante het aan die fynste detail gedink met vars, handgeplukte rose uit haar tuin in elke vertrek, niks is te veel moeite vir haar nie. Die plaas is perfek geleë in die Karoo vir 'n oornag met stilte, sterreprag en sielsrus. Zeekoegat is 'n moet en sal ons beslis weer sien!

Of top quality!

We were warmly received and immediately felt at home. Chante is an amazing hostess. The dinner and breakfast were of the best quality and you can see that Chante put a lot of love into the food. The cottage was very clean and tidy and met all our requirements for an overnight stay. Chante has thought of the finest detail with fresh, hand-picked roses from her garden in every room, nothing is too much trouble for her. The farm is perfectly located in the Karoo for an overnight stay with silence, starry splendor and peace of mind. Zeekoogat is a must and we will definitely see again!

Onvergeetlik

Wanneer jy wens dat 'n plek soos Zeekoegat jou eie kon wees, is dit vir ons 'n aanduiding van die absolute gemak, styl en vrede wat jy selde buite jou eie huis ervaar. Zeekoegat is uniek, stylvol en silwerskoon met 'n gasheer en gasvrou wat geen moeite ontsien nie. Elke ete wat voorgesit was, was voortreflik en met hope flair bedien. Ons sal beslis 'n instelling daarvan wil maak om minstens jaarliks te kan kom om ons eie innerlike vrede te kan ervaar.

Unforgettable

When you wish that a place like Zeekoegat could be your own, for us it is an indication of the absolute comfort, style and peace that you rarely experience outside your own home. Zeekoegat is unique, stylish and spotless with a host and hostess who spare no effort. Every meal that was served was exquisite and served with loads of flair. We would definitely like to make it an institution to be able to come at least annually to experience our own inner peace.

We had the Karoo at its best, the house to stay in, the food to eat, the people we mixed with were a major treat for us. It was an exceptional privilege to be able to spend time with Chante and the food and wine that she served (leg of lamb and all) was top notch. The breakfast on the mountain was great! Thanks.

Absoluut die moeite werd om bietjie uit te ry na hierdie plaas toe. Die plaas en verblyf is ongelooflik mooi, skoon en 'n lus vir die oog. Chante se gasvryheid en vriendelikheid is ongelooflik, sy gee regtig om vir haar besoekers en gaan die ekstra myl om die verblyf so aangenaam moontlik te maak vir die moeë reisiger. Die kos is uit die boonste rakke en alles is bekostigbaar. Kan dit definitief aanbeveel!

Solitude to refresh the soul.

There are not too many starkly beautiful and truly isolated places left. At Zeekoegat you won’t need to turn off your phone, the Karoo obliges. Disconnected, warmly welcomed, well fed and with the milky way to refresh your soul, the farm is an idyllic road trip rest stop. Switch to vacation mode here, slough off the things that doesn't matter, get some perspective. A wonderful spot, can’t recommend it enough.

Warm gasvryheid in die hart van die Karoo.

Zeekoegat Plaas is 'n bietjie off the beaten track, soos ons in Engels sê, tussen die Karoodorpies van Vosburg en Carnarvon. Maar dit is 100 persent die moeite werd. Die verblyf is in 'n ou kliphuisie: dis netjies en stylvol, en jy kyk uit op 'n koppie reg agter jou. Dan is daar die legendariese Karoogasvryheid - 'n drankie op die stoep voor aandete, wat die wonderlikste plaaskos is, met 'n gesofistikeerde twist daarby. Na aandete het ons op die dagbed gelê en sterre kyk, soos wat jy nooit in die stad kan sien nie. En die stilte ... Al wat jy hoor is die wind deur die bloekombome, en dan so nou en dan 'n skaap wat blêr. Volgende keer bly ek baie langer as net een aand!

Warm hospitality in the heart of the Karoo.

Zeekoegat Plaas is a little off the beaten track, as we say in English, between the Karoo villages of Vosburg and Carnarvon. But it's 100 percent worth it. The accommodation is in an old stone house: it's neat and stylish, and you look out onto a hill right behind you. Then there is the legendary Karoo hospitality - a drink on the stoep before dinner, which is the most amazing farm food, with a sophisticated twist to it. After dinner we lay on the day bed and star gazed, the likes of which you can never see in the city. And the silence... All you hear is the wind through the eucalyptus trees, and then every now and then a sheep bleating. Next time I will stay much longer than just one night!
